The decor is fun and funky, but not enough to really hit the theme home. It mostly comes across as dated and cheap. The curtains needed at least two more panels to be able to fully cover the window. We were on the ground floor and with the curtains fully stretched we could still see figures walking by our window on either side where the curtains didn't cover enough. The property has potential to be fun but you can tell it's really just a low budget hotel with a little bit of fun decor. The breakfast is simply small, prepackaged foods like granola bars, not nearly enough to even be worth listing as a breakfast at all. It's good for an economy place to stay but certainly wouldn't consider it a destination.

The remote was not paired with the TV. The sink faucet was very stiff. Tile around the tub should be re-done. Patches to tile did not look professionally done. Staff was pleasant. The lobby breakfast leaves a lot to be desired.

Pros: The property is newly renovated and the furniture is all new and in good shape. Memory foam mattress is super comfy. The rooms are quiet despite the property being right on the main drag. Nice view of the bridge and the river from outside. Check-in and check-out were easy. The nightstands have LOTS of readily-accessible outlets and USB charging ports for your personal electronics. The doors use a keyless combo pad to unlock so no key to worry about losing. Plenty of dining options within walking distance and a minimart just across the street, and the ice machine is complimentary. The TV has full cable with on demand. Cons: The bathroom fixtures are showing their age and the water pressure in the shower could be better. The rooms have heat and a box fan but no AC, so if you like to sleep in a cold room you'll need to keep the windows open and/or get creative with that fan. The doors have a chain lock but no deadbolt. There's no overhead lighting in the main room, so if you keep your curtains closed the room is going to be dim even with both table lamps and the bathroom lights on. No landline phone in the room. Overall: basic but cozy, reasonably priced for a weekend getaway, a little bit of a walk from downtown Astoria but easily within walking distance of just about everything in town.

There was nothing spectacular about this property other than the view of the bridge. It was gross. Some of the other customers looked like typical methadone users in that area. Pig and Pancake is delicious and right next door. The Atomic is nothing more than a grosser Motel 6. There was hair in the sink and around the toilet. And the window in the bathroom was DISGUSTING!!! Drive by the back of the building. You’ll see. On my mudda! Have no expectations.

Nice place to stay

Comfy & cozy old motel with a 1950's vibe. The room was clean & the bed was very comfortable. The staff I interacted with were friendly & helpful. The location is great with easy hwy access & just a couple minutes to downtown Astoria. Will definitely consider starting here again next time I'm in town.
